Seals belong to marine food webs, primarily as carnivores. They are typically positioned as secondary or tertiary consumers, feeding on fish, squid, and crustaceans. In these ecosystems, they play a crucial role in controlling prey populations and serve as prey for apex predators like orcas and large sharks. Their presence and health can indicate the overall health of marine environments.
